The pastor Of the NJ. E. Church
at Andoser has just closed series
of meetings at Bristol, which result
ed in the addition Of about 80 TO
the church. During his stay he Sc
eured:pledges to the amount of $500
for the erection Of church early
III the spring. Six hundred of this
amount is said to have been raised
in less than an hour. The citizens
of orr sister town are live, wide
awake and enterprising and are al
ways on deck in all matters affect
ing the growth and prosperity of
their town. The action taken as
above indicated, shows that the
Town is not only growing rapidly,
but that its citizens are also pros
porous. We are informed, since
writing the above, that it is propos-
cd TO build church costing 81 200
which viii be quite handsome
structure.
Every little cold snap we have
finds groups Of citizens gathered
around the stores in the different
stores discussing some interesting
tppic, and the weather comes in for
fnll share of the talk. Every
group contains a man who is going
Il, move to warmer climate, a man
who has seen colder weather, a man
who thinks this the coolest weather
h. ever saw, a nan who enjoys cold
weather, man who has burned only
ole ton and half of coal, and a
man who can't see how it can get so
cold. Two or three of these char
aeteristics may be combined in one
man but however small the group
all of the above ideas viii come out.
Just step into one of the stores some
re;ll cold day and listen to the re-
marks.

yoling man and his girl we're return
Ing, from church, cooling along under
the lambert light of the moon, they
carae to steep place in u SLOW
DRIFT. So utterly oblivious were
they to sublinary things that they
stepped ON the down grade before
they noticed the danger. A femin-
inc shrek and little bootes bobbing
around over the top of foaming
skirts, muttered imprecation in
masculine voice and they both lay,
in wild confusion at the bottom Of
the little hill. We just snickered
right ont, we couldn't help it. Both
heard our sIlvery voice and the
young man savagely exclaimed,
.Darn that fellow, he's always
around when one is in mix!" just
so-we always did enjoy them.
Mor.l: better risk only one eve on
your girl after this, at Leaf while
the cold spell lasts.
